Laws Read

Go to Product

Lists, retrieves, creates, and updates law sections within law books. Filter by book_id, book__slug, book__latest, or book__revision_date. Write operations require authentication.

Response shape mirrors the Case API:

  • List (GET /api/laws/) returns the summary serializer (LawListSerializer), which omits the potentially-large content field. Use this for pagination, indexing, and discovery.
  • Detail (GET /api/laws/<id>/) returns the full LawSerializer, including content. Use this when the HTML body of a specific section is actually needed.

For whole-dataset access, prefer the data dumps over scripted pagination — see docs/data-dumps.md.
